concert on Saturday, April 7 - 8

had everyone on their feet by the
end.
The flaw’s in the show were a
couple of minutes that could have
been carried off a little more
professionally. There were times
when the flow of the program was
interrupted for mike changes etc.
that left a few uncomfortable gaps.
Also, it was perhaps a bit too
long. At two and a half hours,
people certainly got their money’s
worth, but I think for even the
biggest country music fan it was
maybe too much.
However, while I am certainly
•fct a convert, the afternoon was
jt unenjoyable. I was entertained
and admiring of the talented people
I had seen that afternoon and I
commend Blyth Festival for bring
ing local talent to the theatre and
compliment the performers on their
wonderful abilities. Western
Ontario residents should be proud
that there are so many talented
performers in their midst. You
don’t have to go too far from home
to see quality entertainment.
